2012 Reprint of 1946 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original
edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. "Anthem"
is a dystopian fiction novella that takes place at some unspecified
future date when mankind has entered another dark age characterized
by irrationality, collectivism, and socialistic thinking and
economics. Technological advancement is now carefully planned (when
it is allowed to occur at all) and the concept of individuality has
been eliminated (for example, the use of the word "I" or "Ego" is
punishable by death). The hero of the story is named "Equality
7-2521" and is described as a "six feet tall, 21 year old male."
Equality 7-2521 experiments with electricity to become a literal
and figurative bringer of light, similar to Prometheus. He is named
the "The Unconquered" by Liberty 5-3000, and also named himself
Prometheus.
